old drafts

found some old draft (bookmark) posts...
this one looks interesting >
interLiving - Interactive Thread.: "INTERACTIVE THREAD is a collection of participatory design methods from a variety of disciplines that span the design process: finding out about users, generating new ideas, and selecting and implementing a design.

Each card describes a specific technique and general instructions, with a design exercise and workspace on the back. The cards can be used individually or in sequence and can be learned quickly and adopted by diverse design teams. "

wandering i / i am wondering

whether i might start again looking at this area of research again...

amazing how little interest there has been over the last 15! years

am thinking of contacting helen kennedy (who i met way back)
who is now Prof. at Sheffield University
and recently published:
The Feeling of Numbers: emotions in everyday engagements with data and their visualisation

so hoping they will be interested as my ideas relate to actually capturing people's feelings as data!

now i just need to articulate the 'mood monitor' idea
